best blue cards mtg standard Creature staple cards- July 2026 • MTG DECKS Blue Commander Staples: Best Blue

I want my collection to be futureproof

Sage is a staple in the counters decks, but at least its too good/too expensive to likely be included in the deck

Others were printed like Grim Haruspex or the Reaper that cost less but only work for your stuff

Thunderfoot Baloth The game ends quickly when Thunderfoot Baloths lieutenant ability comes online. I dont see this card played as often as I should, so consider this an appreciation post for my Baloth friend

While a cute reference of slugs climbing up surfaces, its not very good for the amount of mana it demands

Just like last week, any list like this is always going to be subjective, not objective
